TXUX DPU
Title:  TXUX DPU
Description:  Empty coal trains seem to get DPU power on a regular basis; it wasnt always a sure thing. It does help get a well lit photo when shooting a northbound. This interesting set was trailing an empty TXUX train at Gravette

DPU and a water tower
Title:  DPU and a water tower
Description:  The Siloam water tower in town is in good proximity to the tracks. Too bad the name of the town doesnt face the tracks. The DPU, a KCSM/KCS duo, likely added at Pittsburg-and ahead of the BNSF unit that came with the train from Wyoming-pushes for now, but will shortly be holding back the 131 cars as it drops the 1.5% into Watts

And away
Title:  And away
Description:  The DPU recedes south as the train is now completely past me. Time to head home, drain and rinse the tank, and refill for our next adventure.
